  • the aqueous layer was basified to pH 12 with 5 N NaOH and 15% aqueous (NH ) 2 CO 3 (1000 mL) was added.
  • the aqueous mixture was extracted with CH 2 CI 2 (2x).
  • the organic solution was dried (MgSO ), filtered, and concentrated to provide a brown oil. Impurities were distilled off (110°- 140°C @0.2 mmHg) to yield the product (74 g, 57%).
  • the off-white solid was dissolved in CH 2 CI 2 and MeOH and was filtered away from the Celite. The organic solution was washed with 0.5 N aq HCI followed by saturated NaHCO 3 (aq). The organic solution was dried (MgSO 4 ), filtered, and concentrated to provide a brown solid (21.5 g, 83%).
  • the hydrobromide salt (9.6 g, 69%) was dissolved in CHCIs/MeOH and was stirred with saturated NaHCO 3 (aq). The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was further extracted with CHCIs/MeOH. The combined organic layers were dried (MgSO 4 ), filtered, and concentrated to yield product as an off-white foam.
  • Example 1 The following materials used in Example 1 may be obtained from the corresponding sources listed below: AvicelTM PH101 FMC Pharmaceutical (Philadelphia,
  • PA microcrystalline cellulose
  • Lactose Fast FloTM 316 Foremost Corp. Baraboo, Wl
  • magnesium stearate Mallinckrodt St. Louis, MO
  • sodium croscarmellose FMC Pharmaceutical Philadelphia,
  • Lasofoxifene Conventional Wet Granulation Process (Comparative process) The following ingredients were added to a high shear blender in the listed order. lactose 5.000 g microcrystalline cellulose 17.432 g sodium croscarmellose 1 .000 g hydroxypropyl cellulose 1 .250 g silicon dioxide 0.125 g
  • the mixture was blended for approximately 15 minutes. While blending, an appropriate amount of water (approximately 63% w/w of dry blend) was added over a 8.5 minute period and then allowed to continue blending for an additional 30 seconds to achieve the desired wet mass. The wet mass was then dried to a moisture level less than about 2% under vacuum (about 50 millibar (mB)). The dried granulation was milled through a conical mill fitted with a 0.04 inch (0.10 cm) screen and round edge impeller set at 1750 rpm speed. The mixture was blended for about 10 minutes in a 150 cc glass bottle on a Turbula mixer. Magnesium stearate (0.125 g) was added to the mixture and then blended for about 5 minutes. The active blend was then compressed into tablets using a KilianTM T100 tablet press (available from Kilian & Co., Inc., Horsham, PA).
  • KilianTM T100 tablet press available from Kilian & Co., Inc., Horsham, PA.
  • Lasofoxifene Drug In Solution Wet Granulation Process (Comparative process) Water (100 mL) was added to a 250 mL glass beaker equipped with a mixer. While stirring, ⁇ -cyclodextrin sulfobutyl ether (0.452 g) was added followed by the lasofoxifene (0.113 g) and allowed to stir until the ⁇ - cyclodextrin sulfobutyl ether and lasofoxifene dissolved and a solution was formed. The following ingredients were then added in the order listed into a high shear blender. lactose 5.000 g silicified microcrystalline cellulose 17.540 g sodium croscarmellose 1.000 g hydroxypropyl cellulose 1.250 g
  • the mixture was blended for about 2 minutes. While blending, the lasofoxifene:water solution was added over a 3 minute period. The wet mass was then dried to a moisture level of less than about 1% in a 50°C forced hot air oven. The dried granulation was passed through a conical mill fitted with a 0.055 inch (0.14 cm) screen and round edge impeller set at 1750 rpm speed. Magnesium stearate (0.125 g) was added to the mixture and then blended for about 5 minutes. The active blend was then compressed into tablets using a ManestyTM F-Press tablet press (available from Thomas Engineering Inc., Hoffman Estates, IL).
  • Lasofoxifene Dry Granulation Process The following ingredients were added in the order listed into a high shear blender lactose 1052.25 g microcrystalline cellulose 375.00 g croscarmellose sodium 45.00 g silicon dioxide 7.50 g Lasofoxifene 5.25 g
  • the lactose, microcrystalline cellulose, croscarmellose sodium and silicon dioxide were blended for 5 minutes.
  • the lasofoxifene was added next and blended for about 15 minutes.
  • the active blend was then discharged from the high shear blender and blended for about 5 minutes in a twin shell "V" blender.
  • Magnesium stearate (7.50 g) was added to the active blend and blended for about 5 minutes.
  • the active blend was roller compacted on a Vector FreundTM roller compactor unit and milled through a rotating granulator fitted with a 0.033" (0.084 cm) screen (both available from Vector Corp., Marion, IA).
  • the active granulation was blended for about 5 minutes in a twin shell "V” blender.
  • Another portion of magnesium stearate (7.50 g) was added to the granulation and blended for about 5 minutes.
  • the final blend was compressed into tablets on a KilianTM T100 rotary press.
  • Table 1 summarizes the stability results by high pressure liquid chromatography observed for the three different processes.
